Review of Site
I use a flashcard study game for several days before my final exam and many students are always asking if they can borrow my flashcards to take home for studying purposes. While I allow students to make their own during my class, this is a great way to share these flashcards so that students can access them at home. I would also like to have them available for each unit of my health class for students to use if they choose to.
